Well, if we are going to start options not listed, my vote goes for the jaguar XJ supersport...

S Class is due for a replacement, so I would advise against it... the new S8 is definitely great on paper, but we have to see them out and about to really judge them...

After having driven a 760Li and a 750i, I can tell you that they are fantastic cars. And IMO they look really nice with the M-Sport pack... and there's always the Alpina!!

recently cross shopped S class, 7 series and A8 and much preferred the S even if it is the oldest of the bunch.

Except it's not a large sedan, at all.

It looks good. Sounds good but I have had 4 friends with really bad luck mechanically.

I saw the new S8 and it is a beauty. But I'm an Audi fan. Can't stand BMW, they don't drive, they float.

+1 for the Turbo Panny.

Which BMW are you referring to exactly? Between BMW, Mercedes, and Audi, BMW is by far the most connected driving experience.
